Divestitures / Carve-outs
Strategic dispositions, including divestitures and carve-out transactions can unlock hidden shareholder value, generate cash to fund growth and innovation. 对于卖家来说, paying close attention to workforce risks, can maximise sale price, increase speed of sale and enhance profitability. For a buyer, acquiring an incomplete business due to seller entanglements presents many challenges. Ensuring business continuity, and strategically building a "fit for purpose" organisation across structure, 过程, systems and most importantly people is critical for success.
Restructurings and turnarounds
Successful turnarounds require both financial restructuring and planned operational recovery. Aligning human capital strategy with strategic objectives is crucial for success.
Joint ventures and strategic alliances
Joint ventures and strategic alliances provide quicker results than building an entirely new business. They also appear to present less complex logistical challenges than acquisitions. Yet misaligned strategic goals, unclear governance, skewed operating models, indistinct workforce strategies and cultural mismatches can lead to underperformance.
